Was thinking the same. If the words are maintained and only the letters that are jumbled... it gets easier the further you go.

Forgive the pun, but "The words literally start falling into place"

If we assume a sensible sentence, there are only so many combinations that make sense. The complexity of decoding (as a human) feels greatly overstated.

It's computationally-expensive spell check. Not to dismiss the study/tech, it's neat to see the machine apply context too.

You got it right, by the way, minus the name. I didn't copy that part to check

Edit: another way to look at this, a lot of information is encoded in those spaces
